i thought therefore I was...

I forgot, therefore I ain't no more..

I'm pink, therefore I'm spam? :D:o

:D

Anything to please buddy! :D

My preferred philosophical saying is "We are ALL under this blue sky"

I came, I saw, I conquered.

Then I ate and invited all my fellow posters to join me. We dined all night. Left about witching hour, but forgot Kayo, who got lost under the table. He washed dishes and translated farang orders into Thai for about six weeks to pay the bill.

That's what friends are for.

Friends are the family we chose for ourselves.

The opposite of a correct statement is a false statement. But the opposite of a profound truth may well be another profound truth. ~Niels Bohr

You can see a lot by just looking. ~Yogi Berra

On entering bedlam for the first time........

Veni Vidi Retro Recede.

I came, I saw, I fell over backwards.

:o

Oooops. Sorry, Tiggy, I think the theme is being dragged down a slippery slope to a skid row pub...

I cross dress, therefore I'm Pam.

First Diaperboy, now you....if this trend continues we will have a cross-dresser subforum anytime soon! :o

I didn't expect anything less! Nor did I expect anything more!

ps Hey, that's a philosophical statement in itself!

A friend in need is no friend of my Bank Manager.

nolli illigitimi carborundum - not really correct Latin but works reasonably well

You know what CB, it proves that the Latin doesn't have to be perfect for it to be a good one! A dear friend of mine used to use it all the time.

Actually it's ..... "illegitimi non carborundum"

I did Latin at school ..... for lack of talent at the time I failed.

Si hoc signum legere potes, operis boni in rebus Latinis alacribus et fructuosis potiri potes! :D

Lovely...... just trips off the tongue :o

These posts made me think of the phenomenon where multiple personalities

occupy the same person and imagine what their variant might be on this little gem.

"I too think therefore I am but only for a short time as there are others waiting to take

control and then I will no longer think therefore I will no longer be. Maybe I will think

and be again but this is not certain so before I am displaced I would suggest that if you

are someone who seeks trite one-liners to aid you in your perception of reality you should

seriously consider running for political office."

Bit of a serious reply there Taddy. I too did Latin in school, though obviously not to the standard you did...

Sorry Tiggy .... I didn't mean it to sound that serious (now on a 3am toilet run, so will need to be quick) .... translation.

Latin

Si hoc signum legere potes, operis boni in rebus Latinis alacribus et fructuosis potiri potes!

English

If you can read this sign, you can get a good job in the fast-paced, high-paying world of Latin!

It was an old school joke ...... i.e. what the he11 are we learning this for? :o

I did get it Taddy, I did get it!

A friend in need is no friend of my Bank Manager.

A friend in need is a bluddy nuisance.

On a coffee mug with a scene of a guy carrying his p1ssed buddy out of a bar. :o

I think you still failed - nolli is do not and non is not so yours translates as bastards not wear (away) whereas mine translates as don't (let the) bastards wear (you) down

Either way it is not real Latin but still a good personal motto by which to live one's life
